Longitudinal Surveys Show that Urethral Catheters Harbor Recurrent Polymicrobial Biofilms with Cooperative and Competitive Behaviors Among Cohabitating Pathogens

2018-08-09

Abstract excerpt

The analysis of catheter biofilms (CBs) from patients with neurogenic bladder disorders revealed persistent colonization by polymicrobial communities. The recurrence of bacterial species in the CBs of sequentially replaced catheters suggests urothelial reservoirs responsible for recolonization of the catheter surface. Proteomic data for CB samples were indicative of chronic inflammation in the patients’ urinary tr...
